It would still have been called oranges. The color ORANGE was named for the fruit, not visa versa. Thus oranges would be blue, and we'd have a blue color we call "Orange" The color we know as Orange would have another name entirely - perhaps Blue.

It would still be Orange....Orange is the name for the fruit, and not the color of it...if that would be true that we named a fruit after the color....apples would be called red/green/yellow, bananas would be called yellow, plums purple...etc. But we made colors from fruits such as Peach, Plum Purple, blueberry, candy apple red, orange, cranberry, lime green...etc.

Something-that-nobody-would- eat. Like the question. Or it could be called discoloured-oranges. Is discoloured a word, or am I just a freak with no life? I think that question is quite obvious . . .

How do you know that what you see as orange is not what I see as blue?

If my aunty had bollocks would she have been my uncle? She didn't, and the orange is orange, so leave it at that.... bloody boring question.
